I’ve seen this mentioned a few times already: people wondering why certain communities don’t show up in their instance. You need to first search for that community via the magnifying glass icon and type in “[email protected]”
Notice the exclamation mark at the beginning. Might take a few seconds. This will teach your instance about the remote community.
AFAIK, it does. But the url structure is slightly different. Instead of
https://kbin.social/c/memes@lemmy.mlIt would be
https://kbin.social/m/memes@lemmy.mlwith an “m” instead of a “c”.I’m still learning, so someone please correct me if I’m wrong.
It would be awesome for it to convert https://lemmy.ml/c/memes into https://kbin.social/m/[email protected] automatically.
For real. I feel like I recall a browser extension doing something similar for Mastodon. But I don’t have the coding knowledge to adapt that to this use case.
